Creative Nugget: The sky was created by sparkle embossing one of the stamps from the Texture Tiles 1 stamp set, then smooshing and spritzing the panel with Tumbled Glass and Faded Jeans Oxide Inks. The snowdrift in the middle of the card was cut with a hillside borders die. A canvas impression plate was used on the bottom. The panel behind the snowmen was white embossed with several snowflakes included in the set and sponged with the same two Oxide Inks. The snowmen were colored with Copic Markers and cut with my Scan 'N Cut. The sentiment was blue embossed on a banner die cut. More sparkle was added to the card with a few Bitty Sparkle Gems. The design for my card comes from Freshly Made Sketches 361.
